Probablemente la mejor torrija que haya probado nunca! Entre a por un café, pero como no tenian leche vegetal me tomé un té y me compre una de esas delicias. El dueño es super agradable, fue todo un placer terminar en ese bar, sin duda volveré.

Pincho de tortilla y zumo 3,40, lo que me ha parecido un precio fenomenal. El camarero atento y el bar agradable y limpio. La tortilla no esta exquisita pero está buena. Se agradecería más variedad (solo hay sola, y una rellena). Es una buena opción para café/desayuno y está bastante céntrico en Portu
